7 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System 7 Section 1. Introduction The 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System is a compact, simple panel designed to monitor all facets of a wet or dry fire sprinkler system and communicate the status to a monitoring station. The 7706-ULF System is a listed and approved microprocessor-based sprinkler monitoring panel and complies with UL-864, NFPA-70, and NFPA-72. The panel is provided with six (6) inputs and with one 24 VDC, 0.5A Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) with strobe synchronization. The 2.0A power supply provides ample power to meet any jurisdictions requirements and will house and charge up to two (2) 18A/hour batteries. In addition, the panel has the Potter P-Link for connection to a remote annunciator. Purpose of This Manual This manual is intended to assist in installing and programming the 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System. Refer to this manual to properly install and program the 7706-ULF System. It is recommended that the user follow the procedures as outlined in this manual to assist in the proper installation of, and prevent damage to, the control panel and associated equipment. System Overview The 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System is designed for use as a sprinkler fire control panel for life safety applications. The system must be used with an AES-IntelliNet system, a two-way data radio network (see Figure 2), as alarm, supervisory, and trouble messages generated by the 7706-ULF system are transmitted to the AES- IntelliNet system's central receiver. The main components of the 7706-ULF System include a mainboard, an interface card, and a subscriber unit (see Figure 1). The 7706-ULF System is a single enclosure located at the protected premise. Data messages from the control panel (mainboard) are transferred through the AES 7764 Potter Interface Card (PIC) to the subscriber. Power 120V AC PFC-6006 Mainboard Backup Battery NAC Circuit Input Circuits AUX Power P-Link Bus Power Data 7764 Potter Interface Card Data Power 7706-ULF 7788F RF Subscriber D RA-6075 Remote Annunciator Figure ULF System Components The subscriber transfers the data messages to the AES RF mesh network as shown in Figure 2. The mesh network consists of a group of subscribers that provide a path for transmitting messages from the 7706-ULF System to the 7705i MultiNet central receiver. Subscribers in the mesh network automatically establish a path to the central receiver. The configuration is dynamic, so a path will be re-established if a subscriber in the route fails to function. Messages are passed between subscribers in a repeater fashion, allowing subscribers out of direct radio range to communicate with the central receiver.

8 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Messages in the RF mesh network are passed between subscribers until received at the AES 7170 IP-Link. The 7170 IP-Link functions as a gateway between the AES RF mesh network and a TCP/IP network connection to the central receiver through direct Ethernet connection, LAN, WAN, or Internet. Messages terminate at the 7705i AES-MultiNet receiver. The receiver is capable of either sending the messages to automation software, displaying them on the receiver front panel LCD display, or printing them to the attached printer.

14 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Mainboard Wiring Specifications There are several wiring requirements to consider before connecting circuits to the mainboard: (1) the circuit separation and (2) wiring types. All wiring should be sized and installed to comply with NFPA-70, NFPA-72, and local codes and ordinances. Circuit Separation Proper separation between the different types of circuits must be maintained between Power Limited, Non-Power Limited, and High Voltage wiring to reduce electrical interferences, transient voltage, or voltage ratings. Separations between the different wiring types must be maintained by at least ¼ inch and the wire insulation must be for the higher voltage. The control panel cabinet has sufficient knockouts located around the periphery allowing the installer to maintain separation between power limited and non-power limited connections. Wiring Types Wiring specifications must be followed to prevent damage or other consequences. Please refer to the wiring diagram in Figure 4 for proper wiring requirements.

Subscriber Antenna Planning and Installation Important! A UL fire compliant fire alarm installation for the 7706-ULF System needs to be in a location that has a NetCon of 5. Refer to "Table 12: PIC Menu Screen Displays" on page 55 for additional details. It is important to verify that a location is suitable before deciding on the antenna used and mounting the cabinet. A check of the location can be done with the AES Network Connectivity Tool (NCT). The AES NCT provides a quick means for verifying NetCon or finding suitable locations for installation. A tamper resistant rubber duck flexible antenna is part of the standard package for the 7706-ULF System and mounts on top of the steel cabinet. Depending on cabinet mounting, physical location, and mesh network connectivity, a remotely mounted antenna may be required. Antenna Safety Considerations Following is a list of important considerations as well as information on antenna and coaxial cable accessories available from AES. y If the antenna or cables connected to this equipment come in contact with electrical power lines, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY may result. y It is unlawful to operate this equipment in the United States without a valid FCC radio station license. Other countries most likely require licensing through appropriate authorities as well.

18 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System y All equipment must be installed in accordance with National Electric Code, NFPA -70, National Fire Code NFPA-72 and local building codes. y Be certain to properly ground the antenna, enclosure and any surge protection devices to help dissipate surges away from the equipment and personnel. The grounding of the antenna and surge protector is for your safety and the safety of your equipment and should not be neglected. UHF antenna options are listed in Table 7. The frequency range is MHz. Contact factory at (800) or info@aes-intellinet.com for other frequencies.

Mounts in attics, vents, walls, behind drapes, etc. (includes 10-foot cable). 4. Requires coaxial cable. Usually requires user-supplied mounting hardware such as a pole with mounting brackets/hardware. 5. Antenna is intended for outdoor use. Supplied mount is intended for indoor use, as coaxial connection is exposed. To use outdoors, connection must be sealed with a suitable product such as a self-fusing tape to protect against moisture. The antenna must be installed in accordance with the National Electric Code and local electric code. NFPA-72 requires antenna cables to be protected in conduit. A surge protector must be installed in line with any type of remotely installed antenna. Refer to Remote Antenna Diagram in the Installation section for installation details. Coaxial Cable Options y Cables with connectors, BNC N, for all AES subscriber units, high performance, low-loss cables for all -UM, -UC and -US antennas above. y 10-foot RG-58 cable, Part No N. y 25-foot RG-58 cable, Part No N. y BNC plug/connector (male), crimp style for RG-58 coaxial, Part No

Longer than necessary coaxial cable lengths translate into greater signal loss. y Always use the straightest most direct routing possible in any coaxial cable installation. Unnecessary and tight bends add to potential signal loss. y Use 50-ohm impedance coaxial cable only. Do not use 75-ohm coaxial cable for the connection of remote antenna. RG-8, 9913, LMR-400, LMR-600, and RG-58 are among a list of acceptable 50-ohm coaxial cables. y RG-59 and RG-6 are 75-ohm coaxial cables and are NOT to be used. y Use the proper coaxial connectors and crimp tool for the coaxial selected. Incorrect or poorly installed connectors can have a significant effect on the performance of the RF. Transceiver Antenna y The supplied case top tamper resistant flexible 2.5 db antenna is mounted on the enclosure as shown in "Figure 7. Grounding and Surge Protector for Transceiver with Remote Antenna Installation" on page 20. y A separately purchased remote antenna may be used with the 7706-UL unit in UL installations. Contact AES at (800) or info@aes-intellinet.com for a selection of antennas suitable for use with your subscriber unit. Refer to "Table 7: UHF Antenna Options" on page 18 for information on antennas available from AES. y NFPA requires that coaxial cable to antenna be protected in conduit. y Mount antenna as high as possible, on or in the structure, with attics and rooftop locations preferred. Height need not be higher than is required to overcome nearby obstructions to the signal path if any additional height would use a longer coaxial cable length. Coaxial cable to antenna must be protected in conduit. y A remote antenna should be mounted in a location near the transceiver to minimize inherent signal loss due to unnecessary cable length. Do not use longer coaxial cable than is needed to reach the antenna. y Avoid installing the antenna in close proximity to other metal surfaces which may severely impact the performance of the radio communications due to the effects of signal reflections or detuning the antenna. Remember that pipes, conduit, wiring, ductwork, and other metal are commonly installed within walls and could affect antenna performance. Take into account foil-backed insulation and wallpaper. Metal objects may also be located in adjacent rooms or above ceilings. Metallic framing is in common use today. Antenna should not be mounted directly over, or in close proximity to, metal studding. Metallic supports are in common use today. Antenna should not be mounted in ceilings constructed of metal beams and supports that may interfere with the RF signal.

20 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System The antenna must be grounded properly to help reduce damage due to surges produced by lightning. Grounding must be done in accordance with local building codes as well as those in accordance with any other authority having jurisdiction. When needed, use higher gain antenna with rated cable and connectors. Mount antenna as high as possible. Attics that meet the temperature and humidity range specification can help to improve performance. See the UHF antenna options in "Table 7: UHF Antenna Options" on page 18 for available and approved options. y Antenna must be mounted in a vertical orientation. y Avoid tightly coiled or bunched coaxial cable, as this could also affect RF performance. Use coaxial cable length that best fits the installation. y The antenna must be installed in accordance with National Electric Code and local electric code. y A protective surge suppressor must be installed in line with any type of remotely installed antenna.

Link Layer: Refers to the subscriber unit level" or "link layer," which suggests the expected number of hops the message packet might make to get to the IP-Link. In general, if the number is 1, then this unit is attempting communication directly with the IP-Link. If the number is 2, the unit expects to relay its message through one other subscriber unit to reach the IP-Link. If the number is 3, the message goes through 2 other subscribers... and so on. Also, the level number of subscriber with a weak signal to the unit on the top of its routing list will be incremented by 1. A unit level = 255 indicates that the unit is not on the network. NetCon: (NETwork CONnectivity) An internal rating used in the automatic positioning of this unit in the network. The possible values are 5, 6, or 7. A value of 5 indicates there are two or more paths available. A value of 6 indicates there is one path available. A value of 7 may indicate a problem with this unit or a unit in its path to the IP Link. Status: Status shows the subscriber self-test data.

It is sorted so that the best ID is at Preference location 1. If no Packet Acknowledge is received after attempting transmissions to the #1 ID, then the #1 ID is removed from the table and all other preferences are incremented by 1. Transmission attempts resume using the new Preference 1 ID. y Link Layer or Level Link layer as reported by last transmission from ID. The value displayed in the table will be incremented by 1 if the signal quality is not good or if faults are reported by the ID. Link layer is the number of hops a data packet would need using the ID as first in the route, assuming all IDs in the route successfully used their Preference 1 IDs as well. y NetCon An internal rating used in the automatic positioning of this unit in the network. The possible values are 5, 6, or 7. A value of 5 indicates there are two or more paths available. A value of 6 indicates there is one path available. A value of 7 may indicate a problem with this unit or a unit in its path to the IP Link. y Signal Quality The first digit is either an 8 or a 0. 0 means that Carrier Detect (CD) was on during signal reception, while 8 means it was off. CD is related to signal strength where it is on when the strength of the signal is above a certain threshold. The second character is related to readability of the data. A value of 3 is the best, as it indicates that all three of the data repeats were properly read, and a value of 1 is the lowest, as it means that only one of the three was read. Therefore, a good signal would read 03, and a marginal would be 82 or 81. Self-Test Error Codes Status Error Codes A subscriber status error code is displayed in the LCD on the PIC Status screen when the subscriber unit fails the diagnostic self-test. Self-test is performed as part of the power-on sequence of the subscriber. When an error code appears, press the Reset button located on the subscriber board to see if the problem clears (refer to Figure 28 on page 58) for the Reset button location. If the error code does not clear, use the procedure below based on the error code that is displayed. Table 14: Status Error Codes Status Error Code Error Code Description Procedure 001 Battery power is low Check the battery. Press the subscriber RESET button. 002 RAM Checksum Failure Press the RESET button. See note below. 003 Problems 01 and 02 above 004, 006 EEPROM Failure Press the RESET button. See note below. 008 Analog Digital Converter/ADC Failure Same as 004/006 failure. See the procedure above for 004/006.

58 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Table 14: Status Error Codes Status Error Code Error Code Description Procedure 080 Loopback Test Failure Press the RESET button. Unit will likely pass self-test when this is done. See note below. 100 AC Not Present Check AC power input and transformer. 200 Battery Charge Fail Unit may need servicing. 300 Combination of error code problems 100 and 200 Unit powered up by battery alone. If true, you may continue. 400 Ground Fault Ground Fault condition exists on a G terminal of the Zone input section. Other error code displayed. Error code is result of multiple error code numbers added together. Error code of 084 indicates a loopback failure and EEPROM fail ( ). AC fail and low battery would report error code 101. This example and other messages may indicate that the unit requires AES authorized servicing. See note below. Note: If unit passes, it must now be reprogrammed (see "Subscriber Programming"). If unit repeatedly fails the self-test with a message unrelated to AC fail or low battery, service may be required. If you are utilizing the assistance of AES Support, please report the error code to the AES service staff. As a general rule, if the self-test fail is not related to low battery, AC, battery charger, or ground fault, then verify that any ICs installed in sockets are properly seated. If the fault is still present, the subscriber will need to be returned to AES for service. Status Indicators and Subscriber Reset Button Four LED indicators are located on the circuit board of the 7788F. The LEDs are located near the top edge of the circuit board next to the J1/Programmer connector and the Reset button. The indicators are visible in the cabinet on the right side of the mainboard panel. The photograph in Figure 28 shows the location of the LEDs and Reset switch (Figure 29 shows a graphic representation of the Subscriber Status Indicator LEDs and Reset button). Figure 28.

Continue setting up additional reminders if needed. System Programming System programming involves defining the function of points and their relationships to each other, referred to as "mapping." You can define behavior characteristics of individual or groups of points, map points into zones, and further customize your system using the panel configuration software from a computer. The panel configuration software features include: y Easy-to-use Windows-based editing techniques, including drag and drop between windows. y Flexibility in configuring points into multiple zones, promoting sophisticated mapping relationships. y Simple sorting and grouping by select fields enhances viewing and analysis of data. y Options to view points by type, address, and function or description. Mapping Zones Overview Mapping is creating relationships between points, modules, and sensors and their behavior between each other. Whereas, the zone is the framework in which you group the points. These terms and other related mapping concepts are provided in this section. Single Zones The LEARN feature creates or maps a basic, one-to-one relationship where all points are automatically grouped into one zone. When all points are in the same zone, and an input device is activated, all output points will activate. An example of a one-to-one device relationship is shown in Figure 62:

92 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Zone Symbol Legend: = Input Point = NAC = Panel Hardware Figure 62. Mapping all Points to One Zone Multiple Zones The panel configuration software allows you to customize the operational mode behavior of points by grouping them into a maximum of thirty (30) different zones. All input points, including the one (1) on-board NAC circuit (NAC 1), may be configured to behave in a specific manner. This flexibility enables you to configure system points to maximize protection throughout your site. By organizing points into different zones, you can create unique relationships between points for specific outputs or events. The panel configuration software allows you to efficiently group points to follow a sequence of events producing the same combination of outputs into different zones. This section addresses how to accomplish these tasks.

93 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System 93 Mapping Terminology The table below provides mapping terms that may be helpful to you in understanding the mapping concept: Term Mapping Zone Table 23: Mapping Terminology Definition Creating relationships between points, modules, and sensors and defining their behavior. A group of points. Zones may represent a group of points located in a specific physical area at the site. Example: Zone 1 comprised of all alarm devices for a sprinkler system [i.e., pull station #1, one (1) water flow device, and one (1) strobe-nac]. Zones may represent a set of points configured for a specific function; their location may be scattered throughout the site. This group is a logical grouping or zone. Example: Zone 2 comprised of all points in Zone 1 as described above, plus a second pull station located at the end of a hallway and two (2) additional smoke detectors. Notes: y If all input/output points are grouped into one (1) zone, when any input is activated, all outputs activate. y A device or point may be mapped into more than one (1) zone. Point Latching Non-Latching Any specific initiating device circuit (IDC) or appliance connected to the panel. Device will not automatically reset; device must be reset at the keypad to remove condition. Device will automatically reset when trouble and supervisory condition is no longer present. Zone Types / Styles You may define or configure each zone to serve a specific purpose or to create specific output results. For procedures on how to select Zone styles, refer to the Configuring Zones section of this manual. The following zone styles are available: Alarm Zone Table 24: Zone Styles Description Default zone type; sets system into an Alarm condition when any input is activated. Supervisory Auxiliary Fire Drill System Alarm System Supervisory System Trouble Used for all Supervisory inputs. Used for all Aux inputs. Comprised of input / output points that will activate when running a Fire Drill. Used for outputs that will be activated upon any alarm. Used for outputs that will be activated upon any supervisory. Used for outputs that will be activated upon any trouble.

94 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Zone Attributes Zone attributes are the settings that control the overall behavior of points within the zone.

110 ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System Appendix B. System Maintenance and Testing Acceptance Test The control panel is required to be installed in accordance with local and state building codes and NFPA-72 (National Fire Alarm Code). At the conclusion of each original installation or modification of this system, the control panel and related system is required to be inspected and tested in accordance with NFPA-72 to verify compliance with the applicable standards. Testing should be conducted by trained fire alarm technician(s) from Potter factory in the presence of a representative of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and the building owners representative. Refer to NFPA-72 (National Fire Alarm Code), Inspection Testing and Maintenance code. Periodic Testing and Service Periodic testing and maintenance of the control panel, all initiating points, all notification appliances, and any other associated equipment is essential for ensuring that the system will operate as designed in emergency situations. Service and test the control panel according to the schedules and procedures outlined in the following documents: y NFPA-72, Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance. y All test and maintenance should be performed in accordance with any requirements of the local authority having jurisdiction. y Service manuals and instructions for any and all peripheral points installed in the system. It is very important that any and all trouble conditions (or faults) be corrected immediately. Operational Checks During interim periods between formal testing and at regular intervals, the control system should be subjected to the following operational performance checks. The Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) should be consulted for requirements on frequency of system testing. y Check that the green AC power LED is lit. y Check that all amber LEDs are off. y Using the system menus, perform a Lamp Test function. Verify that all LEDs and LCD segments operate. y Before proceeding, (1) notify the fire department and the central alarm receiving station if transmitting alarm status conditions, (2) notify facility personnel of the test so that alarm-indicating points are disregarded during the test period, and (3) when necessary, bypass activation of alarm notification appliances and speakers (if installed) to prevent sounding of evacuation signals. y Activate an input device (i.e., manual station, heat, or smoke detector), and check that all notification appliances function. y Notify Fire Department, central alarm receiving station, and /or building personnel when finished with testing the system. y The test of ground fault must be measured below a 10-kohm impedance.

111 7706-ULF Integrated Fire Monitoring System 111 AC Fuse The control panel has one fuse on the board for the AC power over current protection. The AC fuse is rated at 1.6A to 250 VAC time lag and screened onto the mainboard as F2. Battery Fuse The battery fuse is rated at 2.5A to 250 VAC time lag and screened onto the mainboard as F1. Battery Maintenance The system has been designed to use maintenance-free sealed lead acid batteries. These sealed lead acid batteries do not require any additional water or electrolytes. The system will keep all batteries fully charged by the system's power supply modules float charger. A typical discharged battery will recharge at 0.5A and reaches the voltage of 27.3 VDC within 48 hours. The battery is to remain in the cabinet with nothing on or around the batteries. Replacement and Testing Recommendations The batteries are to be replaced at least once every four years, or more frequently if specified by local AHJ and manufacturer recommendations. Batteries should be dated at the installation. Minimal replacement battery capacity displays on the control panel marking label. The batteries are required to be UL-recognized batteries with a date of manufacture permanently marked on the battery. The battery is to be tested at least annually and if the battery is showing signs of failure, it should be replaced. Immediately replace a damaged or leaking battery, and always replace batteries in pairs. Proper Handling/First Aid Procedures y In the event a battery leaks and contact is made with the sulfuric acid, immediately wash skin with water for at least 15 minutes. Water and household baking soda provide a good neutralizing solution for sulfuric acid. y If sulfuric acid makes contact with eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. y Ensure proper handling of the battery to prevent short circuits. y Take care to avoid accidental shorting of the leads from uninsulated work surfaces, tools, jewelry, and coins. y If a battery is shorted, the battery and any connected equipment may be damaged. Additionally, a short may injure personnel.
